Electric is a great album.:dude
Some of the solos on electric Billy cut were not so hot but, the attitude is there.

Great road trip tune!!! The Cult are one of my favourite bands of all time. I wish there was music these days as good as that...

His solos were certainly 'sharp'. ;)
That video is hilarious, esp. the OTT intro. Bet they were laughing their asses off.
Big fun! Astbury had some swagger...

I think they probably thought it was pretty cool. At the time.

If you figure- for the way Love sounded- NOTHING sounded like the Cult at the time. Except for Danzig's first record a year later. Both were produced by Rick Rubin... Hmmm...

The Cult is one of my all-time favorite bands and I think Electric was their finest hour.

Listening to Love, Electric and Sonic Temple recently. Got into them with 'Electric', then Sonic, then Love. Electric is still my fave; dry cranked Marshalls, zero effects. Sonic Temple is more like Cult meets Gn'R; bigger, flashier, more-'produced' sound, but still a classic album.

Agreed on 'Sun King'- "this is where it all ends..." is the right time to bump up the volume in your car and hit the gas.

Cult were a great band and I loved Ians style. Sonic Temple was an amazing pinnacle of their career.

The Cult are on HDnet live right now. They look really tired. Ian looks like road kill.

Love, Electric, Sonic Temple, and Ceremony were great albums. Anyone have the "Rare Cult" box set and listen to the unreleased "Peace" album? "Peace" was what they were going to release before Rick Rubin came in. He made them change the sound, write some more songs and "Peace" became "Electric". If you've never heard it, imagine The Cult going full blown hair metal, but not being very good at it. Thank you, Rick Rubin!
